QuakeCon 2024 is underway, and during the live stream of the opening event on Bethesda's Twitch channel, id Software announced a number of Doom-related items that are now available or are in the works soon.
The leak about the new Doom and Doom II collection, with a new single-player episode, support for cross-player multiplayer and 16-player online feature, leaked out a few hours ago. However, id Software also announced that the latest game in the series, Doom Eternal, is finally getting official mod tools for the PC version via Steam.
This initial release will be made available via a beta version, and it will be the same tools that id Software used to make the game. Therefore, don't expect these mod tools to be for the beginning mod maker. However, it's still cool that id is finally offering official dev tools to the general public. You can learn more about this release at this Xbox Wire post.
Another thing that was revealed today was Doom Anthology. This will be a collection of Doom, Doom II, Doom 64, Doom 3, Doom (2016), and Doom Eternal Deluxe Edition in one package. The games will be made available in a Steelbook package and it will include a replica of the classic BFG weapon model, with a stand and LED lights. It will be released October 22 for r Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 Nintendo Switch, and PC.
